Hayes; Associate Professor, Lee E. Jackson; Assistant Professors, Lowell S. Adams, Alan E. Stockland, Fred Stutzenberger. The Department of Microbiology provides instruction in liberal arts and professional curricula leading to the baccalaureate degree. Students may complete either a major or minor in Microbiology. A program leading to a career in Public Health is also available in the Department. Departmental Major: Students wishing to complete a major in Microbiology should take the following courses: Microbiology 205, 255, 305, 325, 405, 415, 480 (3 credits) and 499 (3 credits) plus an additional twenty hours of upper division departmental courses. Students should complete Chemistry 123, 312 and 313 or 307; Mathematics 105 or 106 or 107; Physics 101; and Zoology 201. College specific course and general education area requirements should also be completed. Students planning to continue their education in a graduate school are encouraged to include Mathematics 114 and Physics 111 through 116. Departmental Minor: Completion of twenty-five hours of departmental courses Public Health: Students planning a program in the department with Public Health emphasis should take courses listed for the departmental major plus Sociology 372, and Zoology 448, 450 or 455.
